New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio wants to create the left's version of the 'Contract with America'

At the U.S. Capitol next Tuesday, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio will unveil the "Progressive Agenda to Combat Income Inequality," his answer to the "Contract with America."

Politico reports that the 13-point "Progressive Agenda" includes ideas from economist Joseph Stiglitz and other progressive leaders, including activists as well as elected officials. More than 60 people have signed on to the agenda, ranging from senators to national labor leaders to actors Steve Buscemi and Susan Sarandon. De Blasio discussed the ideas with progressives during a meeting at Gracie Mansion on April 2.
